iLust.

so i was strolling along century park on my way home, just me, sade and the iPod.
and that triggered the search for some iAccessories.
look what i found...

ohmiGod, iDig music.

My love is wider, wider than victoria lake
My love is taller, taller than the empire state
It divides and it jumps and it ripples like the deepest ocean
I can't give you more than that, surely you want me back

Is it a crime
Is it a crime
That I still want you
And I want you to want me too


iRack. hahaha, very funny.

You'll Be Safe Here

i wish for once, i could be undaunted by insecurity (in that particular aspect).
i keep having to remind myself that there's only one such person whom i can depend on,
& that's me, myself, and i.

so here it is, a dedication to thyself,

Save your eyes
From your tears
When everything's unclear
You'll be safe here

From the sheer weight
Of your doubts and fears
Wounded heart

When the light disappears
And when this world's insincere
You'll be safe here

When nobody hears you scream
I'll scream with you
You'll be safe here

La Vie En Rose

velvety touch,
with a passionate red.
no special occassion,
just out of the blue.

thank you, for making my day.
did i mention how caring is creepy?
and how insane the intensity gets?

//you and i, strolling along Bakhor street, the oldest street in Lhasa.

Hold me close and hold me fast

The magic spell you cast

This is la vie en rose

Lost In Space

//Forsaken sky burial with one too many tourists.

Tibet Travel Tip #06: Stupas mark the sacred spots. Knockovers and destroyers of pilgrims' commemorative stone shrines will be more susceptible to karmic emanations most possibly in the form of severe AMS (Acute Mountain Sickness), otherwise known as Altitude Sickness.

Tibet Travel Tip #05: Savour the taste of cotton-candied clouds on the highest pass.

Tibet Travel Tip #04: Ready the head gears, coupled with sunscreen and tripled with shades to filter away the scorching UV rays.
*Cowboy hats recommended for brokeback-ers.
*SPF50 works best. Bananaboat for arms and legs, Clinique for face.

Tibet Travel Tip #03: Water parade a must in the driest of lands.
*Nivea All Day Aqua Moisturizer & Vaseline Lip Therapy recommended.
Tibet Travel Tip #02: Dicks for the men, poncho /long skirts /pee pots /bladders with infinite capacity for the ladies on an arduous road trip.
*TR (aka Toilet Roll), a magnanimous saviour with the biggest heart.

Feels just so fine

When we touch the sky me and you

This is my idea of heaven

Why can't it always be so good

You Got Me

missed the Roots gig for ERA 时空之旅,
but i still managed to get my favorite live on 750i.
all smiles for the few precious minutes.

you got me, for sure.
lovely homies.

blasting on replay, dancing silly on the toilet floor.
the heavy heart managed to shed a pretty substantial amount of weight a while ago.

back to reality.
to work, work, work, & more work.

as long as you love me

6th April - Christine's 五连拍, to be cont'd.
followed by Overseas Chinese Mixer @ Neocafe.

7th April - takumi with 4 hongkies, 4 singaporeans, and my unagi fix.
followed by barbarrosa.

10th April - Company dinner at 唐朝, Marriot.

how you got me blind is still a mystery,
i can't get you out of my head
don't care what is written in your history,
as long as you're here with me.

do you remember the old school primary school days?
backstreet's back alright!

It's Raining Men

the uncle's here.
the father in 4 days.
the boy end of April.

did i mention that my last couple of months here is rated hectic?

no time for this.

Flowers in the window

correction: not cherry, but peach blossoms.
at 上海南汇桃花村.

Wow, look at you now
Flowers in the window
It’s such a lovely day
And I’m glad that you feel the same


desires are healthy.
but the frustration derived from deprivation can be so overwhelming.
so, where did my baby go?

Where did my baby go?
I wonder where he ran off to
I miss my baby so
I'm calling but I can't get through

Each Day Gets Better

Where do we go, who knows?
But each day gets better

it does, doesn't it?
even with the suffocating amount of work,
the little petty & senseless tiffs,
the sobbing skies,
yada yada.

the act of ameliorating brings more returns than anyone can imagine.
i actually enjoy getting caught in the heavy traffic of projects, proposals, bosses, colleagues, discussions, debates, emails, phonecalls. and next i know, i go "TGIF!" and treat myself to a nice japanese meal. i absolutely love minor quarrels (not huge uproars) and the sweet apologetic state either one, or both will succumb to eventually. and just the thought of how the sun rays will gently plant kisses on my cheeks after the grays... ...awww..each day gets better.

so now, after "letters from iwo jima" & "the shawshank redemption", i'm headin out for dinner. tomorrow, it's gonna be cherry blossoms about an hour away. thereafter, i'll have to make plans for tibet, maybe guangzhou & hong kong, and of course bangkok before my return to sunny island.

Comfortable

/16th:dinner with e-scholars from the university of portland.
followed by 南京步行街，外滩 & New Heights (the all-too-familiar route).

/17th:visited a Jewish synagogue, a baptist church & a chinese temple.
but i was more drawn to this antique store.
& even more so, to the Lamboghini Murcielago below.

/a while back: at 长乐路,
a street that i kinda like.

Our love was, comfortable and so broken in
she's perfect, so flawless
I'm not impressed, I want you back

A john mayer song, of no relevance to my mood whatsoever,
triggered by the word 'comfortable'.

recently, it's just been comfortable.
even the broken water heater doesn't bother me that much anymore.
Content breeds happiness.
so i guess i'm pretty much contented of late.

Love Generation

babysitting/tutoring: new loves from san diego.

fudan university: new acquaintances from hongkong, shanghai, and capetown(south africa)

mesa manifesto, babyface, attica: new meets from upenn, shanghai, mauritius, germany, italy, france

ah, kurwa!

From jamaica to the world,
it's just love. It's just love.

Peace on earth to everyone you meet.
Don't you worry, it could be so sweet.

Feel the love generation.

P.D.A We Just Don't Care

Let's go to the 'sentosa'
I wanna kiss you underneath the stars

Let's make love
Let's go somewhere they might discover us
Let's get lost in lust
We just don't care,
We just don't care,
We just don't care.

/Edited by LPKS.

Is it a Crime

sade on replay.

Seemingly Sleepy

soon enough, i was home.
made an almost negligible call & stood beneath the hot shower.
next i knew, my face lay flat against the sheets casually strewn at the bottom of the bed and my body, limp.
few hours later(or so i thought), i inched myself towards the pillow, held on to PP and continued the semicomatose state.
imaginary percepts of reaching out for the phone to set the alarm, walking out for a glass of water to ease the dehydration urged me to follow suit in reality, which i just did.
the aching has penetrated through the bones a little, especially at the calves.
i don't think i'm quite entitled to being an insomniac anymore, judging from the amount of work piling up, the countless meetings, and others on the sideline.

i should probably be, a Late Night Alumni.

Get me up,
get me through,
give myself a talking to

Dance tonight
